Confession time and apologies... I somehow lost the photos to some of the step-by-step blogging I was going to use to finish this series as separate posts, and I sincerely apologize! Good news, though - this blog post will encompass as much of the remaining block photos I could find as well as the finishing touches to close out the series. So, if you are as anxious as me at seeing the finished quilt, scroll to the bottom of this post now and you can see all of them in a row! Block 10 is essentially just like Block...

Summer is nearly over and just yesterday a song came over the radio that reminded me of Christmas and the holiday season... my heart had a flicker of excitement as festivities and traditions are just around the corner! What about you, are you preparing for holiday sewing yet? This Block 6, for me, was one more milestone, because it marked the four corners of the Alaska kaleidoscope. It replicates block 4, and after last month's sewing, you should now have a total of 20 blocks sewn and set aside. Let's now begin Block 6, with another set of 4! If you are just joining us, though, order...
I am so excited about this month, because it is an exact repeat of what we did on Block 2, except it gets turned 90 degrees counter-clockwise! It feels like we are coasting for a little bit but I love that feeling of "Oh! I know what to do here... I can do this!". Granted, we still have work to do with these four blocks, but it will be a great time to hone our skills and see if we can make any improvements on those quarter inch seams and matching points, learning with each block! After last month's sewing,...
How is your Alaska quilt coming along? We are doing well and really getting into the rhythm and method for sewing Edyta's way. She's a great teacher and we have all gleaned some very helpful skills to apply to all our quilt piecing! There are a few close-up photos below that will elaborate on the position of the pieces to achieve that accurate quarter inch seam. This Block 4 was one of our favorites in all the series to sew, so we hope you enjoy this one as much as we did! After last month's sewing, you should now have...
Last time, we sewed our second set of four blocks. You should now have a total of eight blocks sewn and set aside. I don't know about you, but a little pile of blocks always makes me feel accomplished! So, let's keep our momentum going and begin Block 3 with another set of four. This block is laid out just like Block 1, but this time we swap pieces to bring in an additional color. If you are just joining us, order a kit below and sew along with us! Click the images below and select your quilt kit in Blue or...
Last month, we sewed our first set of Block 1. How did you do? Did you learn something new? Edyta gives the sweetest encouragement to just keep sewing "one more", so let's begin Block 2 with another set of four! This block has two additional pieces to work in, but I'm adding some tips to help you achieve even greater accuracy. If you are just joining us, there is still plenty of time to order a kit and sew along! Click the images below and select your quilt kit in Blue or Holiday (while supplies last). And, BONUS! All the fabric pieces are pre-cut by...
